Lin En galloped back and forth twice in front of the formation,
All the cavalry looked at him eagerly, especially the many cavalry who had not been canonized!
"I won't talk nonsense anymore! Leave all the luggage and food and set off immediately!"
"Yes! Sir!" The First Cavalry Regiment agreed without any doubts!
Lin En took the lead, followed by the light cavalry, and the heavy cavalry at the end. Five thousand cavalry rushed along the King's Avenue towards Nightport City!
Countless cavalry galloped on the King's Road, and the roar of iron hooves trampling the earth could be heard ten miles away. Naturally, such movements could not be hidden from anyone.
Storm's End declared war that day and sent out troops that day, marching towards Nighthaven City at a rapid pace!
No matter the horse power, they marched three hundred miles a day at an almost miraculous speed and arrived at Nightport City in four days!
When the news came out, the surrounding forces were all shocked and speechless. No one expected Lin En's reaction to be so decisive and fast!
Moreover, Linn, the Duke of Storm's End, has experienced a short period of time since he went to Storm's End alone to succeed him. Now it seems that it is like a legend!
First, one man captured Storm's End Castle with 400 defenders. Then, like a divine soldier descending from the sky, he defeated the Earl of Hayhall who was besieging Storm's End Castle. Then he issued a limited-time allegiance order that seemed a bit ridiculous to everyone, as if he was being ridiculed.
After ignoring it, he attacked nine cities in a row and regained most of the core areas of the Storm Land.
Then, not even two months later, he dared to declare war on Dorne with 5,000 cavalry!
In less than a year, he went from being an illegitimate child who was hunted alone to being the Duke of Storm's End who now rules the Stormlands, has 20,000 soldiers under his command, and is true to his word!
With a group of new soldiers, he achieved a miraculous marching speed of three hundred miles per day!
It's really shocking,
In fact, the reason why he can achieve such a speed is because Lin En personally leads the team. He seems to have a durable BUFF on his body. As long as the knights see him running wildly in front, no one will say that they are tired.
The second is the knights he had conferred before. They were interspersed in various brigades and squads, encouraging and spurring all the cavalry.
The third reason is because they are taking the King's Road at the end. Although Lin En has complained countless times that this kind of road is ridiculous! But after all, it is a rare good road on the mainland, and the marching speed is still guaranteed.
When the First Cavalry Regiment arrived at Nightport City, the acting city lord and the Unsullied who stayed behind to guard Nightport City had already led the two thousand recruits they had trained to prepare the camp, prepared food and fodder, and even cooked meals in advance.
The city’s bachelors are also on standby here,
Lin En came on horseback, but before he could reach the front of the camp, Black Bug and the Unsullied all lined up in front of the camp to greet him.
Turning over and dismounting, the Unsullied all saluted together,
"Black Chongzi, follow me," Lin En said and walked directly to the tent in the camp.
Paul Norton and Goss Garr, two steps behind him,
Everyone gathered in the big tent,
A sand table has been prepared in the center of the big tent. As the important town of the Bone Road, Blackport City's defense against Dorne has always been a top priority. The sand table is ready-made and extremely accurate.
Lin En and a few others gathered in front of the sand table, and Hei Chongzi introduced the situation to everyone.
"To the south of Blackport City is the Bone Road to Dorne. The Bone Road crosses two rivers, ending in Blackport City in the north and Yronwood City in Dorne in the south."
"A peninsula is formed between the two rivers. It has been occupied by Dorne for many years. There are three cities on it, namely Weir City, King's Tomb City and Vulture's Nest!"
"The most important of them is Vail City. It guards the bone road into the peninsula. It has fertile land and a large population. It is the most important city on the peninsula."
After listening to his introduction, Lin En looked at the sand table carefully.
Judging from the sandbox, Dorne occupies the absolute strategic initiative in both the Two-Day Pass and the Prince's Pass.
At first it seemed that Dorne and the Stormlands were evenly matched, but that was just an appearance.
These three inconspicuous cities on the Mesopotamia Peninsula have almost everything in common and can influence all the intermediate sections of the two roads.
What's more, now that Night Song City has surrendered, there is only one Night Song City left in the Storm Land, which is still outside the Two Rivers Peninsula!
What he was thinking about was not how to capture these cities, but how many cities he should capture!
He was confident in capturing any city, but after that, he didn't have that many troops to garrison, and he didn't have that many officials to carry out reforms. He had too much to eat, and it was just worthless food that was tasteless and was a pity to throw away.
War is just a means to achieve an end. When a war starts, you have to decide where you want it to end.
Therefore, you must be prepared to capture as soon as you capture it, and you cannot eat too much at one time.
"Bang!" Linn slapped the entire peninsula with one palm!
"Let the soldiers repair and set out for the battle in three days!"
"Yes! Your Majesty the Duke!"
Paul and Goss left quickly and arranged for the soldiers to eat and feed their horses before allowing them to rest.
No matter how tired the horse is, the horse must be fed in person. This is the only way to develop a tacit understanding with the horse.
Most of these five thousand cavalry were recruits who had only been trained for a few months. They were so full of recruits that after three days of high-intensity marching, they almost died of exhaustion on the road! Many of them could not even walk after dismounting.
.
After persevering, everyone felt exhausted, but their spirits changed drastically, their impatience subsided, and they gained resilience!
This resilience will be one of the qualities they must have to become elite soldiers!
The next day, Lin En opened the door and walked out of the contact. The black bug stood at the door of the contact all night,
"There is no need to be so guarded in the camp,"
"Master! I have something to say!" Black Bug knelt on the ground,
Seeing how solemn he was, Lin En stood still and nodded and said, "Say it!"
Black Bug raised his head and said: "Master, I want to fight!"
"There have been almost no decent battles since we came here. We either won before we started fighting or were training new recruits. We Unsullied are warriors, swords and spears. Our destiny is to die on the battlefield.
Master, please grant me your permission!"
After saying that, he knocked his head on the ground,
Lin frowned and looked at it, silent for a while,
Maybe I did ignore these Unsullied ones. They were indeed very useful soldiers. I had already regarded them as seeds. I was not even willing to let them get hurt. I hid them in the rear to train soldiers, but I did not consider these people.
Even if they are no longer complete, they still have desires. They have been training for combat all their lives and are eager to show their value!
"In three days' time in Well City, you and the recruits you trained will take the lead!"
Black Chongzi was overjoyed and promised loudly: "Thank you, Master, for your support. I will definitely dedicate the city of Well to you!"
After saying that, he bowed and trotted away!
After the First Cavalry Regiment had been repairing in Night Harbor City for three days, although it had not yet reached its peak adjustment and the horsepower was still insufficient, Lin En could not wait any longer.
"Drums and trumpets!"
Early in the morning, a low and loud horn sounded. The cavalry were already ready to go. As soon as the horn sounded, they assembled at an extremely fast speed.
Lin En stood in front of the formation, patrolling back and forth on horseback to ensure that everyone saw him. He reined in his horse and shouted loudly throughout the formation.
"The Second Banner Regiment opens the way and is the first to cross the river and establish a position! If you encounter the enemy, fight; if you encounter setbacks, separate the two sides! The First Banner Regiment's heavy cavalry regiment follows closely behind and destroy all enemies in front of you at any cost!"
"I will arrive at the foot of Vail City before dark today,"
All the cavalrymen tensed their nerves subconsciously, feeling waves of heat flowing through their bodies, and the blood all over their bodies was burning!
